Borderlands 4 Amon Skill Breakdown

Can’t decide who to play as in Borderlands 4? Amon is a true warrior who uses a forge axe, hammer, and shield to emerge victorious in battle. Probably as a result of being raised in a Vault monster-worshipping cult. Out of all of the Vault Hunters available, The ForgeKnight can be built as a highly customizable tank. Still not convinced? Here’s everything gamers need to know about Borderlands 4 Amon.

Who Is Amon? (The ForgeKnight)

Bio: “Amon was raised in a Vault monster-worshipping cult—until the Vault was opened and the creature turned on everyone he loved. As the only survivor, he dedicates his life to finding and killing as many of these beasts as he can. Amon, a warrior-poet, is introspective and unflinching to his duty, but despite his hardened appearance, he has a warm attitude, often regaling comrades in arms with stories and advice earned throughout his travels.”
